How I found Daddy and Willow this morning while Cassie and I were still asleep 😂 playing ‘games’ on the PlayStation together 🕹 Too cute!

⁉️Feeling Stressed? ✅LAUGH! YES, LAUGH OUT LOUD! LOL ❌"How ridiculous is that? Besides, I have nothing to laugh about!" That’s probably what many are thinking. ‼️See, When it comes to my mental wellness, I don’t care about appearing ridiculous. I’ll choose wellness over keeping appearances... any time of the day! ‼️Also, let’s get a little bit Science-cy. WiNK 😉 the psychologist in me likes to explain why I suggest what I suggest because I honour you and don’t want to throw baseless ideas around- there’s already too much of that oldwives tales about! ❇️Anyway… let’s get back to science behind laughter. ✅Laughter triggers the release of endorphins, the body’s natural feel-good chemicals which can help relieve pain. ✅If you are not feeling outright brave like some of us who can laugh at loud, any time anywhere at anything, then Simply Smile! ✅Smiling activates neuropeptides in your brain that chases away stress. ✅Also, when we smile, we release other wellbeing chemicals such as dopamine and serotonin. ✅One more good thing about smiling, it not only boosts your mood but also the mood of those around you. “when you smile the whole world smiles with you” are not just sweet words from Dean Martin, science confirms this, and the good book long suggested that. ‼️So, let's get laughing and smiling. 💯However, if you are feeling so low that even parting up your lips to smile is a problem, please contact your doctor. It’s ok to seek all the support we need to maintain our mental wellness.

Giving back to new parents in the NICU and making up thank you boxes for staff has been the traditional that we hope to continue offering. #premies #nicugraduate #prematurebaby #nicustrong #parentsoftwins #twinmums #mcdatwins #twinmomblog #nicubaby #nicumom #nicu #mommoment #irishtwins #preemie #firsttimemommy #tiredbaby #pakistanibloggersofinstagram #bloggerpakistan #twinsandmultiples #fridayface #firsttimeparents #babyjournal #twinmama #identicaltwins #babybathtime #themamaprojectshare #twinsofinstagram #girlmum #4monthsold #lockdownbaby https://www.instagram.com/p/CX1npuJqFP3/?utm_medium=tumblr

When your baby is discharged home for first time, a new set of worries evolve- Developmental Milestones. We know not to compare preterm with term babies, the same applies to comparing your preterm with another preterm. Each baby's journey is unique, and they will progress at their own pace. #premies #nicugraduate #prematurebaby #nicustrong #parentsoftwins #twinmums #mcdatwins #twinmomblog #nicubaby #nicumom #nicu #mommoment #irishtwins #preemie #firsttimemommy #tiredbaby #pakistanibloggersofinstagram #bloggerpakistan #twinsandmultiples #fridayface #firsttimeparents #babyjournal #twinmama #identicaltwins #babybathtime #themamaprojectshare #twinsofinstagram #girlmum #4monthsold #lockdownbaby https://www.instagram.com/p/CXj48haq2U3/?utm_medium=tumblr

As parents, care givers and NICU parent's we tend to focus our energies on looking after others. It's easy to get distracted and put ourselves at the bottom of tasks. As advocates of good mental and physical well-being in IPB, it's imperative that you give yourself the care you need. #premies #nicugraduate #prematurebaby #nicustrong #parentsoftwins #twinmums #mcdatwins #twinmomblog #nicubaby #nicumom #nicu #mommoment #irishtwins #preemie #firsttimemommy #tiredbaby #pakistanibloggersofinstagram #bloggerpakistan #twinsandmultiples #fridayface #firsttimeparents #babyjournal #twinmama #identicaltwins #babybathtime #themamaprojectshare #twinsofinstagram #girlmum #4monthsold #lockdownbaby https://www.instagram.com/p/CXg8GOIqzO0/?utm_medium=tumblr
